Sorry, raevol, I didn't mean to put pressure on you. I should have posted this in the release thread anyway. My bad.

Have a nice trip! - And thank you for the smooth release, especially since half the team is on holiday.

No worries!! Sorry if I sounded defensive, I'm more trying to convince myself haha. And thank you and everyone for the smooth release too! It's only from working together for so long that this ship keeps sailing!

Hm. Not that much.

exploitable, since it's arguably easier to kill a person than to steal expensive item without being noticed.

1. This is how it works in Morrowind.
2. You still can't steal an expensive item when someone's watching you without committing a crime, it's just that it won't get added to stolen items, so it can't be confiscated by guards if they didn't notice you stealing it.
